Competency 3: Podcast

After much searching and a small amount of frustration at links that no longer worked or podcasts that hadn't been updated in some time, I finally found one. I didn't use the search engines to find this particular podcast, though I had tried them to little success. I used the HigherEd blog link in the course module, and then chose "Podcasting in Education," which was a hyperlink. On that site, I found a link for Grandview Library Storytelling. This librarian has audio clips of books. I like this idea because I think it may be a good way to get kids interested in a book. Since podcasts can be longer, I wonder how feasible it would be to do recordings of whole picture books. That way, students could listen and follow along at home.

Here is the website link: http://www.grandviewlibrary.org/StoryTelling.aspx
